Back in the old [chat]s when times were simpler
Also a benefit of living in the future - I am making this post from my iPad, tens of thousands of feet above the earth, and I won't have to put it away for landing and was able to play video games on it during takeoff.
Fuck yeah future!
People today don't know how good they have it. I think we should take a moment to study what primitive technology was like years ago. Back in 2010.
Back in my day, screens on smartphones only had resolutions of 960x640 operating at sloth-like 3G speeds.

And our videogames were simple then, too, mostly involving the player jumping to the left and then jumping to the right.

And believe it or not, in the old days cars didn't drive themselves - no, they were merely able to self-park.

Also, I quite like that modern versions of ballet are suddenly popular (*cough* in advertising at least *cough*)

What are you looking for? Anything?
Yeah you can. Or at least in the states. They just changed in about a month ago.
Also, mom not drinking and telling kids to shut the fuck up about video games because she is busy on the phone. Unrealistic.
Oatmeal cookie is pretty versatile and delicious.
Make moonshine.
If you don't blind everyone at the party, you made it wrong.
Over here it's still slightly awkward when you're using an eReader and just close the case pretending that that is the same as turning it off.
Plus, I'm not sure if it's just because I fly on cheap airlines, but I've never had plane wifi either.
Really, you should make these two things more prominent in your international relations. These are important achievements that make you stand out from the rest of the world.
Do your long range buses have wifi? Apparently ours do which changes my entire opinion on them.
Yeah, that's pretty common, but it's less important because you're also able to get a 3g signal. In the sky that's just witchcraft.
Elan didn't do very much to endear me to him. I mean skipping right to "eat my dick", come on, this is D grade trolling.
Dirty Fizz (prosecco with a tiny splash of raspberry liqueur ), poinsetta (fizzy white, triple sec and cranberry juice), erm...the other ones I'm thinking of involve cooking.
Maybe not a cocktail per se, but Glogg is a delicious spiced flavoring intended to mix into hot wine or vodka. Tasty, christmasey, and an authentic, traditional excuse to drink most of the bottle of vodka.
It's expected that the eu will follow suit on in-flight electronics.
It's likely to be combined with approval for repeating mobile base stations for aircraft use.
An old annoying person and a young annoying person get onto a plane on thanksgiving. . .
talk about escalating a situation
I slept in later than I meant to
It's dark outside.
This is very late.
It means standby power, and if it's off while the PC is on, I can't imagine there's any problem. If it's off while the PC is off and the PC won't turn on, then it means your PSU is outputting nothing at all.
i haven't done that in years. it was pretty swell.
How this should have gone:
"Shut the Hell up you're not the only one trying to get home for Thanksgiving."
*order wine and two vodkas and drink them*
Would have been much more fun for any sane person and less stressful on the flight attendants.
As an American, I'm not a part of your system, maaaaan
This article also has some nice suggestions
I'm hoping my mead is ready to drink by Christmas.
I really hope those base stations are fuck-off expensive to use though, because if people can start cheaply making phone calls on flights I might end up going on a murderous rampage.
Sure, mission critical business call that you are willing to pay 50-75 dollars to make? I get it. "Guess what I had for dinner" will make me choke you when you are sharing my air and pressed into my arm cruelly due to the tiny seats.
Let's play Mario Kart or something...
I have a h/a thread that explains more, but bolded is closer to the mark.
YEARS? Do you live in a north korean prison camp?
And yet you expect to adapt Hibernian Nomenclature to your own ends?
